A Stochastic Wire-Length Distribution for Gigascale Integration (GSI)—Part I: Derivation and Validation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on Rent’s Rule, a well-established empirical relationship, a rigorous derivation of a complete wire-length distribution for on-chip random logic networks is performed. This distribution is compared to actual wire-length distributions for modern microprocessors, and a methodology to calculate the wire-length distribution for future gigascale integration (GSI) products is proposed.

Impact of Power Density Limitation in Gigascale Integration for the SIMD Pixel Processor
Gigascale Integration (GSI) enables a new generation of monolithic focal plane processing systems built with billion-transistor chips. As this technology matures, fundamental technology limitations on wire interconnects and power dissipation will become the performance bottleneck. This paper presents system performance projections for GSI technologies under these constraints. Architectural mode...
متن کاملExploring Microprocessor Architectures for Gigascale Integration
As VLSI advances towards billions of fast transistors on a chip (Gigascale Integration, or GSI), it is becoming clear that interconnect issues will dominate. Conventional uniprocessor architectures, developed in an era when interconnect was largely ignored, may be incompatible with this technology. This paper presents a quantitative exploration of architectural alternatives for gigascale techno...

متن کاملI-V Characteristics of a Molecular Wire of Polyaniline (Emeraldine Base)
In this study, Polyaniline molecule (emeraldine base) is modeled as a molecular wire and the effects of the metal/molecule coupling strength and the molecule length on the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics are numerically investigated. Using a tight-binding Hamiltonian model, the methods based on Non-equilibrium Green’s function theory, Landauer formalism and Newns-Anderson model, our calcu...
متن کاملStochastic Wire-Length and Delay Distribution of 3-Dimensional Circuits
3-D technology promises higher integration density and lower interconnection complexity and delay. At present, however, not much work on circuit applications has been done due to lack of insight into 3-D circuit architecture and performance. In this paper, we investigate the interconnect distributions of 3-D circuits. We divide the 3-D interconnects into horizontal wires and vertical wires and ...
